People may have heard of others; comment here. Does that put us in a hotspot? I’ve had a hard time finding a data map on the cases…

I heard from a principal in a Fidi school who argued that schools should be closed: her students are riding one to two hours every day to get to school in what she is calling a virus hotspot, then going home to young siblings and older relatives. “If this were suburbia and 50 cases were linked to a business within a mile of the school, that school would shut in a second. This is happening and yet Manhattan schools stay open…This virus will, as with most things, hurt the poor disproportionately.”
